Commentary on Psalms 119:127
Therefore I love thy commandments above gold (עַל־כֵּן אָהַבְתִּי מִצְוֹתֶיךָ מִזָּהָב, al-ken ahavti mitzvoteiḵa mi-zahav)—The therefore connects to v. 126: precisely because God's law is violated, the faithful treasure it more. Mitzvot (commandments) become precious when rare. The comparative 'above gold' (mi-zahav) echoes Ps 19:10—God's words are more desirable than finest wealth.Yea, above fine gold (מִפָּז, mi-paz)—Paz is refined, pure gold. The escalation (gold → fine gold) emphasizes supreme value. While the wicked nullify God's law, the righteous find it priceless.
